About Vladimir Melnikov
Vladimir Melnikov is the founder and owner of Moscow-based Gloria Jeans, one of Russia's largest fast fashion retailers.
Founded in 1988, the company later manufactured for Western brands such as Levi's and H&M.
The business expanded quickly in 2022 after Inditex, H&M and Uniqlo left the Russian market, allowing Gloria Jeans to rent out some of the vacated space.
Gloria Jeans operates more than 700 stores in Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan.
